[Best of] THE TOP 330 MOVIES OF THE 1990s


RIPPA

Recommended Posts

8) THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS

1991 - 1362 Points - 22 Votes (Highest Vote: #1 Newb82 & Kyle Casey)

 

This was the film I was referring to when I wrote about Terminator 2: Judgment Day. Still a fan as it placed #7 on my ballot and it deserved to win the big five Academy Awards.

 

7) RESERVOIR DOGS

1992 - 1476 Points - 20 Votes (Highest Vote: #4 Execproducer)

 

At the last minute this missed out on my top ten, #11.

DIRECTOR: Coen Brothers
STARRING: Jeff Bridges, John Goodman, Julianne Moore
Placement On Original List: #10 (16 Votes)
 
 
NOTE FROM RIPPA - And that was the tie I had to break. Thankfully, it wasn't between two movies that got first place votes because I might have changed the tiebreaker.

don't dislike Shawshank, but I do wonder why its reception is so overwhelmingly positive..... until you mention that it is based on a Stephen King novella.

 

It really does suffer from Stephen King's rather hamfisted enforcement of his personal feelings of morality and social justice.

 

The Warden is definitely one of King's worst antagonists.  So cartoonish in his evil and woefully inept.  The guy is definitely no Randall Flagg, Arnie Cunningham, or Margaret White.

I'd say for the story, the performances, the tale of hope and how it gradually became a hit.
